Sydney Mardi Gras CEO Albert Kruger says this year’s event will include “everyone from all walks of life that touches our community”.

Sydneysiders are preparing to 'feel the love' tonight as the city's biggest celebration of LGBT pride kicks off. Mr Kruger told Sky News the parade will be broadcast this year which is “unique” because it will include regional Australia and show “their own unique Mardi Gras party”.

“They’ll be talking back and giving us their integration in terms of how they experience Mardi Gras and what matters to them,” he said. The Mardi Gras CEO also said the parade contributes about "$123 million to the New South Wales economy in the two and a half week festival, which is fantastic to see.” Image: News Corp Australia

All the fruit cakes out to party

You say it’s for all walks of life, yet the majority of floats are not appropriate viewing for my kids. Is it about your choice to love OR sexualisation.

Hmmmm

Not me

3. It could be time to discuss whether Mardi Gras should be rebranded to be inclusive of all people and celebrate a common interest of Love and Life and not sexual preference.

2. Imagine a world where we didnt separate people into catagories for example ‘a book club’ for ALL not a ‘Gay & lesbian book club ‘ Our society promotes segregation based on race religion etc & needs to change to Integration where we come together to celebrate a common interest.

its degenerate.

1. Mardi Gras gay & lesbian parade seems to me to celebrate the sexual preference of some people in our society & discriminatory to hetrosexuals . If named Sydney Mardi Gras we could focus celebrating life & love regardless of race , colour, religion or sexual preference.

Omg conservatives will be exploding in silence rage

Happy Mardi Gras!

😂😂😂

Only if they LBGT++++ include them. Ironic.

Good. Bunch of dudes, getting disproportionately excited while watching other men getting hot and sweaty. Then use homosexuality as an insult. Hmmmmm... Sounds like a lot of closet dwellers to me. Bigots...the club should cancel the game at moments like that and walk off.
